Chasing success and fighting for greater recognition, Drugstore Makeup find themselves on the cusp of their next big break. So when Chloe kicks them out of their comfort zone, Izzie and the band enter a tornado of activity: writing and rehearsing fresh songs as they prepare to record an album, embarking on a tour of grimy live music venues to grow their fandom mosh pit by mosh pit, and vigorously debating the optimum ratio of band merchandise to sleeping bags in the back of their shared touring van. But with a drummer who cant keep time, debts that wont stop piling, venues that never live up to the photos online, and a manager who seems more troubled than the band, will this year, and this tour, see Drugstore Makeup reach the next level - or see them wiped out?!

1st printing. Written by Ezra Claytan Daniels. Art and cover by Camilla Sucre. Kirah was born from an improbable interracial relationship that, in central Floridas infamous Asurupa County, defied all the odds. But her idyllic childhood was shattered by an urban legend come to life. The Gatorman was a nightmare on the lips of kids and grown-ups alike all the way back to Jim Crow: a monster with the body of a man, the head of an alligator—and a taste for Black children. That's who crawled into Kirah's window when Kirah was just five years old. According to the police, it was Kirah's own father who put on that gator mask and tried to kill her. Twenty years later, Kirah works hard to build a life unburdened by the traumatic events of her childhood. Just when it seems like she's managed to find her stride, her dad, fresh out of prison, crashes back into her world with a chilling message: He's coming for you. Finally forced to face the hideous family history she's been avoiding, Kirah sets off to discover where, and who, she truly came from. And the more she learns, the more disturbing the whole picture becomes. Turns out there's a lot more to the Gatorman than Kirah thought, and even worse: he isnt through with her just yet. A clever hybrid of swamp noir, slasher horror, and social satire—and brought to life by Camilla Sucres vivid illustrations—MAMA CAME CALLIN' is a story about family and legacies, both the ones we inherit and the ones we cant escape. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 240 pages, full color. Teen+ Cover price $25.99.

1st printing. Story and art by Alex Ross. Alex Ross, the award-winning and bestselling creator of Marvels, Kingdom Come, and Fantastic Four: Full Circle, takes readers through the Marvel Universe—but all is not as it seems Marvel Dimensions is legendary artist Alex Ross second book in the Marvel Arts series, following the national bestselling, critically acclaimed, and award-winning Fantastic Four: Full Circle. The story opens with a sweeping tour through the classic origins of Marvels most iconic characters. Spider-Man, the Incredible Hulk, Iron Man, Wolverine, and many others appear in dramatic, fully painted spreads that echo their earliest stories. A narrator describes each moment with confidence, guiding the reader through these touchstones of Marvels history. But as the story moves forward, the tone begins to shift. The voice behind the narration is not who the readers expect and carries a motive that slowly pushes the narrative somewhere darker and far more unpredictable. Once this change becomes clear, the book expands into something larger and more surprising. Storylines twist in on themselves, characters behave in unexpected ways, and events ripple across the Marvel Universe with growing tensions. Ross uses the structure of the book to create anticipation and pull the reader deeper into a mystery that keeps widening. Every new sequence reveals another layer, building toward a final act that reframes everything that came before it. A bonus 32-page comic book is included that is pivotal to the storyline. With Marvel Dimensions, Ross approaches the Marvel Universe from a new angle with new character invention that invites readers to question what they think and what they know. Marvel Dimensions may be the latest title in the Marvel Arts line . . . but it is only the beginning. Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 112 pages, full color. Teen+ Cover price $29.99.
